Liberty is Not 'Negative', Only 'Exist' or 'None'

Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité | La Révolution,Les Misérables

When a car drives down the highway to arrive at a fork in the road ahead, to go left or right is a God-given freedom - negative liberty. But if you drive off the highway, it is no longer a God-given freedom. It is bad, positive liberty.

This analogy is often used by Evangelical Conservatism to interpret God-ordained negative liberty. They also specifically assert that the right wing is always good because Christ is at the right hand of God.

Open up, I am Here for you

Social problems go beyond frontiers. Humankind's wounds, those huge sores that litter the world, do not stop at the blue and red lines drawn on maps. Wherever men go in ignorance or despair, wherever women sell themselves for bread, wherever children lack a book to learn from or a warm hearth, Les Misérables knocks at the door and says: "open up, I am here for you" - Victor Hugo, Behr, Complete Book, 39–42

La Révolution

The French Revolution of 1789 (French: La Révolution française) was expected to create a just society, but violence only "blossomed" but did not "bear fruit". The people overthrew the old order but did not build a new one. This created an opportunity for Napoleon Bonaparte (French: Napoléon Bonaparte; August 15, 1769 - May 5, 1821). When there is no order, it is better to establish a new "old order", even under the patronage of a dictator, than no order at all.

Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité

European dynasties, fear of the French Revolution, was not the fear of dynastic change, but the fear of the awakening of the third class. They realized that the era of aristocracy, which was ruled by blood, would be ended when the third class ascended to the stage of history. New ideas would forge a new era.

Liberté
The slogans of the French Revolution were: Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité. The French term liberté, which corresponds to the English word liberty, emphasizes rights rather than the state of being free, or the ability to be free - Freedom. The concept of liberty comes from ancient Greece. As Aristotle said:
...
Égalité
In pre-Revolutionary France, nobles, clergy, and commoners did not have equal rights. Moreover, the nobility and the clergy were not required to pay taxes. In the requirements of the French third class, liberty, and equal rights are indivisible; they have the consistency of rights. The French Revolution's slogan, Égalité, emphasized equality before the law, reflecting the people's demand for equal rights. The revolutionaries demanded that citizens have equal rights in politics. This was clearly stated in the "Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen", published in 1789:

Fraternité
The slogan of the French Revolution, Fraternité, is close to the English word Fraternity, but in French, it emphasizes brotherhood, friendship, and moral support between people. The word also means to associate for mutual support.

The Revisionism of "Liberty"

When the ideas of Liberté, Égalité, and Fraternité deeply rooted in people's hearts, and when the opponents could not do so directly either, they resorted to Leninist revisionism - if you can't oppose it, advocate it and tamper with it.

Positive and Negative

Isaiah Berlin (May 24, June 6, 1909 - November 5, 1997), a philosopher from the Russian Empire who moved to England, delivered his inaugural lecture, "Two Concepts of Liberty", when he became a Professor of Social and Political Theory at the University of Oxford in 1958 and made a clear distinction between "negative liberty" and "positive liberty.

In Les Misérables, Victor Hugo focuses on the 1832 Paris Republican uprising (French: Insurrection républicaine à Paris en juin 1832) in Paris, also known as the June Revolution or the June Riot.
...
The French population needed bread. For the French republican elites, they knew that all social justice had to be realized through liberty. Liberté, égalité, and fraternité had become indivisible civil rights. Hugo desired a justice in which no more citizens would be degraded by poverty, and libertarians believed that justice could only be ultimately realized by a freedom that could strive for liberty. In this way, liberté opens the door of égalité, but after opening the door, the road to fraternité is long and difficult.
